Michael Jackson is dead. So sorry to the die hard fans. He was an amazing entertainer. He certainly had an enormous impact on the music industry.
You know what though, he hasn't done anything since then but cause trouble, molest children and add to the ugly side of our nation. Many will miss him and more will not.

I am working on a personal use Rails application that I use to create reminders using Cron...
There are a couple gems that are useful for dealing with Cron using Ruby. The first is rbcrontab which allows you to create crontab entries using Ruby. The other is trak3r-crontabr which actually maintains a crontab using Ruby. The latter of the two might be easier to use for those who do not understand Cron syntax but know Ruby well. I am leaning toward rbcrontab right now simply because I feel it may fit my needs better than trak3r-crontabr.
I'm not sure that I really need a full blown web interface or not. It would be nice but I think what I really need is just a mailer with templates. I don't know, once I figure out the details I will make a part 2.

I recently had to configure Xorg to run a 40" LCD monitor. The monitor did not seem to support EDID queries. To my understanding this is essentially a protocol that most monitors support to explain what modes they support and give general information about the monitor.
After a little Google searching and not finding anything on the model number of the unit which is 40LC45S. I eventually found this this modeline generator in this link. All you need to know are the resolution and refresh rate combination(s).
